Top 57 Greatest Music Albums
by Shiebs17 
I rate all albums on this chart out of 5. I take each song into account. If all of the songs on an album are top tier, I will give the album a 5 (that is why there is no "least favorite song" for 5's). This means any track, even if it is above average, can be a detriment to the album. I feel this is the best way to express my feelings for a record as a whole. Usually I do not take intros, interludes, or hidden tracks into account for a rating. It may seem like I have a lot of 5's on here (which I do) but that is because they all are personally close to me and I believe, due to my musical preferences, that they all deserve the 5/5 rating.
The album cover is just another great feature for me. It does not necessarily add to my score out of 5 for an album, but I like to show how I think of it.
*2 albums per artist*
Recommendations and criticism is appreciated!

"It's been a long time since the book of love. I can't count the tears of a life with no love. Carry me back, carry me back. Carry me back, baby, where I come from. It's been a long time, been a long time. Been a long lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely time."
Everyone in the band put their all into creating this classic and pure rock album that shines in every aspect.

"Is there anybody out there?"
One song after another, strung together, perfectly flowing into one product that seems yo go by in the blink of an eye. I always get lost into the concept of the album, making it one of my favorites.
